The Hungarian National Ballet presents a new Laurencia production choreographed by Michael Messerer on 6 March 2020. The production that can be seen seven times this season aims to enchant audiences with spectacular solo dances, duets and ensembles.

Dear Visitors and Customers,
According to the Operational Group commissioned by the Government of Hungary responsible for the containment of the coronavirus epidemic, the height of the spread of the epidemic was expected on 3 May 2020. Therefore, taking the usual one-month rehearsal period into consideration, any theoretical chances of having any performances in the 2019/20 season had ceased. The earliest possibility for the Hungarian State Opera to be open for audiences is in September 2020.

Events

Some operas are legendary. One of them is Puccini's work telling the story of young Parisian bohemians: one of the most beautiful romances in the opera literature, it starts with an extinguished candle and a lost key.Kálmán Nádasdy's legendary production has been on the opera's programme since 1937, with nearly 900 performances so far. In the 2018/19 season, as part of the Opera from the Opera! series, audiences in cities around Hungary and in the neighbouring countries will get to hear a concert version of Puccini's work featuring the Opera's soloists, along with the Hungarian State Opera Chorus, Children's Chorus and Orchestra.
